Fragmentation of Chilean Andean rivers: expected effects of hydropower development
(2019)
BackgroundFragmentation (establishment of barriers e.g., hydropower dams, reservoirs for irrigation) is considered one of the greatest threats to conservation of river systems worldwide. In this paper we determine the ...
Assessment of climate change impacts on streamflow and hydropower potential in the headwater region of the Grande river basin, Southeastern Brazil

Downstream effects of hydropower production on aquatic macroinvertebrate assemblages in two rivers in Costa Rica
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2014)
Despite the fact that little is known about the consequences of hydropower production in tropical areas, many large dams (>15m high) are currently under construction or consideration in the tropics. We researched the effects ...
River science and management issues in Chile: Hydropower development and native fish communities
(2018)
The magnitude of hydropower developments in emerging regions threatens the sustainability
of their riverine landscapes. Fragmentation of river networks by multiple barriers and the imposition of new hydrological regimes ...

Massive tree mortality from flood pulse disturbances in Amazonian floodplain forests: The collateral effects of hydropower production
(2019-04-01)
Large dams built for hydroelectric power generation alter the hydrology of rivers, attenuating the flood pulse downstream of the dam and impacting riparian and floodplain ecosystems. The present work mapped black-water ...
Hydrological impacts of dam regulation for hydropower production: The case of Lake Sibinacocha, Southern Peru
(Elsevier B.V.PE, 2023-01)
Study focus: Hydraulic infrastructure plays a fundamental role for energy production, drinking and irrigation water storage and flood control in regions with seasonal river flow. The highAndean Lake Sibinacocha has been ...
